RE: Stuck with certificates for https

I created a certificate this way just a few moments ago and then ran Scott's
EXAMPLE4 program.  It came back with an error message:

SSL Handshake: (GSKit) Certificate is not signed by  

And then it cut off because the error message field wasn't large enough to
display the entire response. I'm assuming it probably said "is not signed by
a valid certificate authority" or words to that effect.

I wonder if you have to use a valid CA such as Verisign rather than a System
CA gen'd on your own iSeries.

Alexander,

Use the iSeries DCM to create a certificate. You can access the DCM with
this web page: http://ip-of-your- iseries:2001/

You could also use for example a Win200x Server as a certificate authority
or create a certificate with openssl.

Hello Scott,

I´m stuck with creating a certificate for using https-connections. I am not
sure, if I have to get a certificate by trusted company, just to act as a
client, or if there is a possibility to generate a certificate on my own
(for example to use your EXAMPLE3). I have been checking your latest
description on how to set up certifacte manager in your mailing list, but
there is a point, where you explain, that you already have a certificate for
other reasons and just link it to your application profile. i don´t have a
certifiacte and do not really know, how to get one - without buying one.

Thanx for your help.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen/Best regards Mag. Alexander Grünwald
